§ 11. Mr. Brockwayasked the Minister of Labour what recommendations have been made by the Industrial Health Advisory Committee of his Department regarding the extension of laboratory facilities for industrial hygiene testing.
§ Mr. WoodThe Industrial Health Advisory Committee has appointed a subcommittee to collect and assess information as to the needs in this field, and to consider how such needs can best be met.
§ Mr. BrockwayWhile thanking the Parliamentary Secretary for that Answer, may I ask whether he has knowledge of the three pioneer laboratories at Slough which are examining the effects on health of noise and heat and dust in factories? If he has that information, could not it be incorporated in some national plan in order to carry out research into industrial diseases to try to prevent them?
